That is wrong, putting profits in front of women’s safety/the truth.

Who initiated?

Now that you are grown, do you feel it was wrong of him?

Was he married?

I have always voted Republican. But I never will again. The Republican party has turned into a bunch of fascists and they support things I no longer can get behind. They have become the party of big government controlling everything. I just cannot. I am voting Democrat from now on.

So if you know me, I likely know more about you and your family’s ancestry then you do.


Why does this obscure family trivia (about other people’s families), interest you??!

Abortion when I was 27 that was the best decision for me and only two friends and the guy know. My current Dh does not know and he does not need to know. Most women who are alraedy well adjusted do not regret their choices and move on just fine.


“Well adjusted”? Wtf, no.

You can have made that choice and still have regret. Glad it was straightforward for you but it’s not for many and it has nothing to do with them being “well adjusted.”


+1000000 It has nothing to do with being well-adjusted. I would hope than any woman recognizes that it is a major decision and feeling conflicted is normal. if you are so well-adjusted and fine with it, why doesn't your DH know?

+1 it took me years in therapy to get over it and it was my decision.

I sometimes like to dress my masculine husband up as a slutty girl.

Oooh, I need to meet you! Do you know how to find out a woman's maiden name?


there are mistakes on there. I was just 'told" my g-g-grandfather had a whole other family in Mississippi based on information from Ancestry. It's incorrect. So take that information with a grain of salt.

My sibling who is very annoying married a man who allows her to stay home and “take care” of their kids. She does absolutely nothing in terms of work, even though my parents spent tons of money sending her to a private college and grad school. I’m divorced with kids, work hard, and have been fired twice in the last few years. I need the money way more than she does. She’s getting plenty and there’s no need for her to know that there’s more that I’m keeping for myself.


You sound extremely ignorant in several ways, and it’s not surprising you have been fired. Whether or not you think you deserve more money, you don’t because that’s up to the person who drafted the will. You are required to provide an accounting if any of your siblings requests it, and then what are you going to do?


The state actually doesn’t care if you provide an accounting or not. I have several friends who have been executors for their parents’ estates and they tell me that no one ever checks on whether or not the executor provides an accounting unless you are dealing with a very large estate. As long as the taxes are paid, no one is really going to check on me.


Don't try that in Maryland, lol. The accounting and paperwork were gone over with a fine tooth comb by the court system, which was fine with us. We actually went to the massive trouble of a years-long legal dispute because it was our fiduciary duty to make sure the beneficiaries got their inheritance. No fun at all, and a huge amount of trouble.

I have had several issues you all have mentioned and thank you, it makes me feel not so alone now.

I mean that.

Bad enough i am the "poor" one of the group, I don't need to be shamed further on my flaws so i won't admit IRL.
